"Excellent improvement to the original Gilson Microman; particularly in user comfort (fits more easily in the hand, better suited to extended use). The new volume lock is also very good, stops any drift while in use."

Description

Three-dimensional structures derived from NMR and single crystal analysis are difficult to achieve at best and quite often the analyses fail. The time, energy and money spent on cloning, expressing and purifying proteins that refuse to crystallize or are inappropriate for NMR analysis, drive up the overall cost of structural biology research and if a project is abandoned when a structure cannot be produced, the efforts are totally wasted.

Rigaku's new BioSAXS-1000 SAXS camera is designed specifically to meet the needs of the structural biologist. Based on a patented two-dimensional Kratky design, the BioSAXS-1000 takes up much less space than a conventional 3-pinhole camera but offers better flux character­istics. Best of all, the BioSAXS-1000 can be mounted on the open port of a Rigaku rotating anode X-ray generator, taking full advantage of existing infrastructure, or it can be mated to a Rigaku microfocus sealed tube X-ray source.

A new BioSAXS-1000 AUTO configuration incorporates two time-saving features: an automatic sample changer for unattended overnight operation and an Automatic Analysis Pipeline based on the world standard ATSAS package from EMBL Hamburg.

BioSAXS-1000 Features:

Automated sample changer (3 sample positions plus one standard)

Simultaneous SAXS and WAXS measurements in a single image (qmax = 0.65 Å⁻¹)

Easily installed on the open port of an existing generator or can be installed with your choice of
